Hi Si, anything on Milinkovic Savic?

Si, seen on the timeline that exWHUemployee said we have made a bid for Sterling and hold serious interest in Neto but haven’t seen full proof that he said it. Anything on either of those? I know you were the first I seen on the Sterling interest.

lots of potential big news, but am guessing we just need to be a bit patient before it all hopefully comes to fruition. Must admit though I'll be glad when we get an 'here we go' re Kounde and hopefully for Dembele and Rice as well.

Have 'fun' with the move. Any thoughts on next Friday?

So just because they're saying that it means it's done? So many English and other sources saying only yesterday it's Chelsea in the lead. Spanish media been constantly pushing Barca. Whatever happens will happen, we can't do anything about it! We just need to be patient and wait for official word and ignore all the speculation.

I do understand. But we can't be beating ourselves up over every bit of speculation, we just have to put our trust in our ambitious new owners and Thomas Tuchel. Transfer windows are always this way, clubs trying to hijack, things changing at the last minute, media being paid to push stories, it's all normal. I really want Kounde, but if it transpires that he really wants Barca over us, then I don't want him. I want players who WANT Chelsea. I still think we get him though.

Absolutely, that's the least I expect! I will demand it and say Jonathan has insisted! 😂
